Vehicle Lifts

Understanding when to replace your vehicle lift and the decisions to take when choosing a replacement lift will help to maintain a safe, productive and effective workshop environment.

This week saw our full fleet of engineers in our dedicated training facility.

Straightset have just completed their supply of a floor to floor hydraulic scissor lift, which has been installed at a state-of-the-art showroom and workshop in High Wycombe.

A brand new purpose built Volvo facility opened its doors in early February 2020 located on Bluebell Way in Preston. Straightset were excited to work with Rybrook on this workshop installation project.

It’s a common sight within many a vehicle workshop to see it fitted out with bay after bay of above ground 2-Post lifts, however, many modern workshops fit-outs and developments today are naturally upgrading for more permanent in-ground vehicle lifts as a garage equipment solution. We consider why?

The vehicle lift (or vehicle ramp) is the lifeblood of the vehicle maintenance industry. However, for something so essential to the trade, it can often be easy to take vehicle lifts for granted. As a result, incorrect operation of vehicle lifts, misunderstanding of loading techniques, and lack of maintenance result in accidents every year.
